SUMMER CAMPS

Speed & Agility Camp

This program is for all players who are looking to boost their speed and agility in the game. The soccer specific exercises used in this camp are designed to give players a quicker first few steps and faster overall speed on the field. All activities will make use of the soccer ball, which ensures that the body movements are all ones used in the game. This is a unique opportunity to learn from coaches who know what it takes to compete at the highest level.

Swansea City FC Premiership ID Camp

This two hour camp will encompass and address the 4 main components of the game: technical, tactical, psychological, and physical. All players will be coached by the professional Swansea City FC coaches throughout the week and the top players will be identified as potential players for the Swansea City FC. Space is limited to 75 players per session.

All level players are welcome. Players will be divided into groups based on age and ability. There will be a “Swansea Super Group” for the most competitive players.

This one and a half hour Future Stars camp is designed to introduce children to soccer through play in a fun environment. Needs of the children are central to all activities. This camp is a great way to introduce young children to soccer in a short camp format with enjoyable games.

Coaching Philosophy

The Elite Soccer Academy is proud to continue our partnership with Swansea City FC of the English Premier League. Professional UEFA coaches from Swansea City FC will be running the camps. All players will be coached and evaluated by the Swansea City FC coaches, and maybe someday one of our campers will be pulling on the Swansea City FC jersey for an EPL match! We aim for all players to develop the fundamental soccer skills to last a lifetime. We’ve combined the best professional coaching staff and the most cutting edge curriculum to guarantee you and your child the best possible summer camp experience.
